Chapter 40

Nagato looked at the information above, his mind filled with complex thoughts.

He had not expected that a ninja from this Anomalous Containment Site...

...would actually confront a god to prevent his own world from being destroyed.

Thinking back, it seemed he once shared the same ideals as this ninja, struggling desperately to protect his family and friends just the same.

But...

This person was simply too foolish.

To attain true peace, one must kill those who are unclean.

Peace must be bred within a cycle of pain.

At the same time, everyone across the entire ninja world was engaged in discussion.

"He dares to trouble a god who destroyed a world relying on nothing but a single long spear?"

"To be honest, this person today reminds me of the Fourth, who willingly sacrificed his life to protect the village back then."

"That's right, that's right, and also the Third, who sacrificed himself to protect the village just a few days ago."

"Actually, I feel the people of this Anomalous Containment Site are even greater than the Third and Fourth; after all, the Third and Fourth left their names behind, whereas this person does not even have a name."

"Confronting a deity with a mortal body; why are my eyes constantly filled with tears?"

At first, people were still discussing these anomalous objects.

But by the time they reached the end.

The direction of everyone's discussion had shifted to the Anomalous Containment Site and the agents of the Anomalous Containment Site.

Inside the Hidden Cloud Village.

The Raikage watched the information on the light screen and was so moved he broke down in tears.

This... this is truly damn moving!

It is far too easy to stir one's emotions!

This is truly a man of deep feeling and righteousness.

If there is a chance, I must get to know this man from the Anomalous Containment Site.

But at the same time, the Raikage's heart was still pondering.

These fellows, in order to protect their own world, did not hesitate to sacrifice their lives.

This sentence seems to truly correspond to that part of 'We Control, We Contain, We Protect' regarding 'We Protect'.

Originally, everyone thought this Foundation protected those anomalous objects.

But now the Raikage knew.

What this Foundation protects is the humanity of the entire ninja world.

Meanwhile, within the light screen, Naruto held the diary in his hand, speechless for a long time.

After finishing the diary, Naruto's heart received a tremendous shock; looking at the diary in his hand, Naruto kept muttering to himself.

"These people are all ordinary ninjas, yet upon learning their world would encounter danger, they would actively seek it out."

"And furthermore, they attempted to kill that so-called god."

Slowly closing the notebook, an extreme radiance emanated from Naruto's eyes.

"He did not hesitate to place himself in peril to protect his own world and to protect those he loved."

"This must be the power of bonds and courage!"

In an instant, it was as if Naruto had achieved enlightenment; he looked at the Red Sea Object in his hand.

"Then the fact that this Red Sea Object appeared in my hand must be the power of fate."

Just as Naruto felt his blood boiling with passion.

Suddenly he felt a chill run down his spine, as if something was behind him.

But when Naruto turned around, he discovered nothing at all.

However, the people outside the light screen had just seen something unusual.

"Hiss~ Wasn't there a figure that appeared behind Naruto just now?"

"That's right, I saw it clearly; it was a blurry human figure."

"What is this figure? Could it be a ghost?"

"Not necessarily; perhaps it is the soul of that deceased ninja, specifically coming out to guide Naruto."

Just as Naruto looked around the surroundings in confusion.

Suddenly, the entire room went dark.

Seeing this, Naruto immediately grabbed his kunai and assumed a combat stance.

Immediately following that.

Naruto seemed to sense a rotting head without facial features staring intently at him.

In an instant, a wave of extreme fear swept through Naruto's entire body.
